I am going to France for 22 days in May (May 3 - 26) Eight days will be spent in Paris. I have been to Paris numerous times so I don't feel the need to do all the touristy things again. This time, I want to find a few nice local wine bars to enjoy a glass of wine. Does anyone have a favourite wine bar in Paris????
Yes, O Chateau gives a nice introductory wine tasting.
I'll be in Paris for two nights, starting May 3rd as well, just prior to a RS tour beginning a week from today. In RS' France guide he recommends a wine bar in Paris called , OChateau. http://www.o-chateau.com/ I'll actually be doing a tasting there next Friday. Looks pretty good.
Thanks... will have a look at O chateau. I already have 2 wine tours booked in Bordeaux and 2 in Avignon. I am mainly looking for a local wine bar in Paris to just enjoy a glass of wine that will be mainly filled with locals.
Shona, Take a look at the website Paris By Mouth. They've got great listings, including a list of recommended wine bars by arrondissement.
Here is a good site I use for the current Paris food scene.
